#TIJUANA, Mexico—More than 300 Tijuana residents took to the streets on Nov. 18 in a rowdy protest against the #migrant #caravan—which they say forced its way into their country and is demanding to be looked after, even complaining about the food.

Magdalena Baltazar, 40, held a sign saying “Mexicans love beans” after hearing that the migrants, from Central America, had been complaining about the food Mexico has offered them.

“They complained that the tacos, the tortillas with beans, are food for animals,” Baltazar said through a translator. “It is actually one of the foods that people here in Mexico have at home. How is it possible that immigrants come here to criticize Mexico’s food?”

Guadalupe Arangure, who added some drama to the protest with his rumbling motorbike, said it’s wrong to think it’s a migrant caravan.
